There are no specific bugs/oopses that these patches fix (that I'm
aware of). Both were found while I was familiarizing myself with the
code looking for memory corruption (which turned out to be [0]).
Either issue would be very difficult to hit in the wild and
mutex_destroy is empty unless you compile using CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES.
